In fact, for the most part, the car is a Toyota: only the front end came from BMW. However, the work was done thoroughly: the craftsmen managed to harmoniously "fit" the "square" front end from the "three" into the Tacoma, which definitely has more "curvy" shapes.
As Carscoops rightly notes, such a car would perfectly pass for a production BMW pickup.
By the way, not a single "live" car was harmed during the conversion – to bring their idea to life, the students used cars damaged in accidents.
What's under the hood is unknown. The standard Toyota Tacoma was equipped with inline four-cylinders 2.4 and 2.7 with 142 hp and 150 hp respectively, as well as a 190-hp V6. In turn, the BMW E30 was equipped with a 2.5-liter inline six-cylinder producing 168 hp.
